Satisfaction of Dissatisfaction
By Swati Verma
"No no, this can't be so easy!"
We often discard any ideas or solutions,
Because they seem too simple,
Come to our mind too quickly.
An idea can be anything that one wants to invent.
Then why does it have to be measured on the scale
of how difficult or easy it sounds.
I think it's smart,
if people can find an easy way to work,
that is fulfilling for them and gives them time,
to enjoy the other aspects of life as well.
Hard work pays but smart work is rewarding,
But our minds are wired to the thought of slogging
and working long hours,
Only then do we feel better, more satisfied.
This false sense of work satisfaction leaves no room for personal aspects,
leaving an individual dissatisfied with one's life.
Hence the phenomenon, 'satisfaction of Dissatisfaction',
a vicious circle we are unable to break.
The only idea or solution to break this circle,
However simple it might seem is,
go for simpler ideas, simpler life, simpler solutions.
And untrain your mind to find satisfaction
in the simplistic conceptualization.
